More than 3,000 Swedish-language periodicals have appeared in Finland since 1771. These publications span research, religion, hobbies, organisations including companies and educational institutions, humour, and annual festivities. Around a third of the collection has already been digitised, focusing on general magazines and publications for front-line soldiers.
The digitisation project launches in February 2026, starting with scholarly journals, which will be accessible by the end of the year.
